Reborn Sweet Wife: Quan Shao's favorite

However, Huo Jingyuan was also very clear in his heart that he played with Qiao Ruoqing to make Qiao Ruoqing happy, not to embarrass her.

As a result, Huo Jingyuan kept throwing water almost all the time. In the end, although Qiao Ruoqing put in a little effort, she finally won.

The girl was a little excited, bouncing up to Huo Jingyuan, raised her hand, and pressed on his shoulder, "Look, I just said that I won't lose to you, right?"

Knowing in his heart how Qiao Ruoqing won, Huo Jingyuan not only didn't expose it, he was also happy, but he didn't show it. He just looked at the cue in his hand and sighed: "It's been too long since I played, my hand is raw!"

Qiao Ruoqing glared at him, "Is it so difficult to admit my progress?"

"It's not difficult, it's really improved." Rubbing Qiao Ruoqing's hair fondly, Huo Jingyuan asked, "Are you still coming?"

"Next time, otherwise Aunt Tang won't be able to find us in a while and we should be in a hurry." Qiao Ruoqing put the cue back into the rack while talking.

Huo Jingyuan didn't force it, and led her downstairs as she wanted.

Qiao Ruoqing went back to her room to pack her luggage, so Huo Jingyuan went to the study.

Not long after, someone knocked on the door, and then Xu Wen came in from the outside, "Master, Miss Wu is here, sir please go down."

Huo Jingyuan stopped turning the pages of the book.

Miss Wu?Wu Shan?

"Do you know what she's here for?" Huo Jingyuan asked.

"I heard that they are here to pay New Year's greetings to the husband and wife." Xu Wen replied.

Huo Jingyuan closed the book and put it back on the shelf.

He hadn't heard Wu Shan say that he was coming to pay New Year's greetings. He only remembered that he said that he wanted everyone to get together before the New Year's Eve, but when Meng Zizhao returned to the imperial capital, he let it go.

Well done, what year are you coming to pay homage to?

Huo Jingyuan was inexplicably agitated, but nothing showed on his face, and he walked out of the study.

I don't know if it was just to delay time, but he walked down the stairs step by step, slowly, with a lazy atmosphere all over his body, which was completely different from when he was in the company.

Hearing footsteps on the stairs, Tang Lan turned her head and saw that Huo Jingyuan was alone, she was slightly startled, "Huh? Xiaojing, why are you the only one? Where's Xiaoqing?"

"She went back to her room to sort things out." Huo Jingyuan said, and sat down next to Mr. Huo, his gaze swept across the pile of gift boxes on the coffee table, and fell on Wu Shan's face without emotion, "Why are you here?"

"I'm here to pay New Year's greetings to my uncle and aunt! Didn't you all go abroad for the New Year? I'm afraid you won't be in Jiangcheng anymore if you don't come, so you won't be able to catch up." After answering Huo Jingyuan's question obediently, Wu Shan asked: "I just heard from my aunt that Miss Qiao is here too?"

Just now Tang Lan only said that Qiao Ruoqing was there, so Wu Shan took it for granted that Qiao Ruoqing was just here to pay New Year's greetings just like her.

After all, Tang Lan and Qiao Ruoqing's mother had a close relationship, so she always took good care of Qiao Ruoqing, and Wu Shan knew about it.

But just now Huo Jingyuan said that Qiao Ruoqing went back to her room to tidy up her things?

It sounds like this, but it's not as simple as coming to pay New Year's greetings.

Could it be that she wants to live here?
Although she had such a guess in her heart, Wu Shan didn't ask that question, she just asked the question just now.

However, even so, Huo Jingyuan seemed a little unhappy.

"She's celebrating the New Year at our house this year." Huo Jingyuan's voice was cool.

He actually wanted Wu Shan to be fine and not have to run here often, after all, their relationship was not that close.

But considering that both parents are there, it seems cruel to say such words to a girl.

So think about it, forget it, and didn't say it.

In fact, Wu Shan also felt Huo Jingyuan's alienation from her, but she acted as if nothing happened, and instead smiled, "So that's the case. That's okay, I heard that Qiao's annual meeting was very successful last night. Well, it seems that my aunt has gone too?"

"Yes." When mentioning Qiao's annual meeting, Tang Lan couldn't stop smiling, "Although Xiaoqing is young, she is very courageous in doing things, just like her father back then, and she will definitely be great in the future .”

While talking, she still didn't forget to grab Huo Jiang's hand, "Husband, do you think so?"

Huo Jiang almost never refuted Tang Lan's words, and he was indeed optimistic about Qiao Ruoqing, so he nodded, "Yes, as long as Ruoqing continues like this, the Qiao family will have a bright future."

The corners of Huo Jingyuan's lips finally raised. The movement was actually not big, but Wu Shan captured it all.

This was the first time Huo Jingyuan laughed since she came here today.

But this smile was not for her, but for Qiao Ruoqing.Is he so happy because he heard his parents praise Qiao Ruoqing?
You might even say that you're so proud, right?

The unhappiness in Wu Shan's heart kept accumulating and suppressed, but at this moment, she couldn't help but want to burst out.

When facing her, Huo Jingyuan was always so indifferent, but as long as it was related to Qiao Ruoqing, he always seemed to care so much, no matter it was good or bad.

The phone in the side hall next to it rang, Xu Wen picked it up, and soon asked Huo Jiang and Tang Lan to answer the phone, saying that it was Huo Jiang's old friend.

When the two elders left, Wu Shan forced a smile on her lips.

Feeling the cold and alienated aura on Huo Jingyuan, she felt extremely uncomfortable, and finally asked: "By the way, Jing Yuan, I heard from Cheng Han that recently there is a man named Wei Ran who seems to often go to miss Qiao. They are still classmates in college, is there such a thing?"

In fact, she knew in her heart that such words should not be said in front of Huo Jingyuan, but she couldn't help it.

She couldn't understand how Huo Jingyuan cared so much about Qiao Ruoqing, and couldn't understand that Huo Jingyuan showed a different expression every time because of Qiao Ruoqing.

Thinking about it, she sighed, "Actually speaking, Ms. Qiao is not like what the outside world said. Her relationship with Wei Ran should be very ordinary, right? I don't know where those people heard about it. When Miss and the Song family were still engaged, she was with this Wei Ran..."

"You said, did you listen to what Cheng Han said?" Huo Jingyuan interrupted Wu Shan, and the breath on his body became even colder.

She had expected that Huo Jingyuan would speak, but she didn't expect him to ask this. Wu Shan was slightly startled, and then said: "Yes, I'm listening..."

She seemed to want to explain something, but Huo Jingyuan didn't have the time and patience to listen to her explanation, and said simply: "I don't know when Cheng Han became so talkative."

He didn't talk much, and it sounded like a simple statement.

But the meaning in it is very clear: Cheng Han is not a talkative person, that is to say, Wu Shan's news was obtained by her looking around.

In other words, Wu Shan was just making trouble out of nothing.

Hearing the meaning of Huo Jingyuan's words, Wu Shan felt aggrieved, "Jing Yuan, we've known each other for so long, how could I be the kind of person who makes trouble out of nothing? I'm also worried about Miss Qiao."

She lowered her head, as if sad, and sniffed, "I know you and Ms. Qiao have a good friendship, and we also cooperate with Huatian, if there is any problem with the reputation of Qiao or Ms. Qiao , is not good for our company."

It sounded like she was really thinking about the company.

She looks like she has been wronged so much, men are most easily moved when they see her.

But in Huo Jingyuan's view, there are only four words of hypocrisy.

Huo Jingyuan didn't speak.He was still sitting as before, without changing his posture.

Wu Shan didn't give up, and continued: "I have passed the year-end assessment, so now I am also a full-time employee of Huo's. I will worry that these are also for the company, and have no other meaning."

Leaning towards Huo Jingyuan, Wu Shan's words carried a hint of pleading: "Jing Yuan, don't misinterpret my meaning, okay?"

Huo Jingyuan didn't know if he misinterpreted Wu Shan's intention, but he suddenly remembered something.

Some things that are inconvenient to say to Wu Shan because of her parents' presence, can be said now without worrying about anything.

Glancing at Wu Shan, Huo Jingyuan quickly turned his gaze away, as if he didn't want to stay on her for a moment at all, "Don't come to Huo's house if you have nothing to do in the future, so as not to be misunderstood by others."

After finishing speaking, she got up and walked away, leaving Wu Shan sitting alone on the large sofa in the living room, but she was even more lonely.

Wu Shan bit her lip.

Misunderstand?

Every time she comes to Huo's house, she has a valid reason. Why do others misunderstand her?

Moreover, is Huo Jingyuan so afraid that others will misunderstand their relationship?What about Qiao Ruoqing?
When Qiao Ruoqing came to Huo's house, she was much better than her, right?And... now she still lives in Huo's house, so what?
Wu Shan was full of grievances, but she couldn't find anyone to tell her. At this moment, out of the corner of her eye, she saw a figure standing on the stairs.

She raised her eyes and looked over there. It was Qiao Ruoqing.

In an instant, all the grievance and resentment on Wu Shan's face subsided, and she smiled at Qiao Ruoqing, looking extremely friendly, "Miss Qiao, are you there?"

Qiao Ruoqing found Wu Shan sitting there when she packed her things and came down to look for Huo Jingyuan.

She was still thinking about whether she should go to say hello first, or wait for Tang Lan or Huo Jingyuan to come and then go there together. After all, she is not the owner of this place, so it would not be good for such a person to go to say hello.

But before she could figure out the answer, she heard Wu Shan's voice.

It would be even worse if he turned around and walked away at this time!
Unable to avoid it, Qiao Ruoqing sat down in front of Wu Shan, "Miss Wu, when did you come? Did you come to see Aunt Tang and Uncle Huo? They..."

"They answered the phone. I heard it was an old friend calling." Wu Shan cut off Qiao Ruoqing's words.

Qiao Ruoqing felt relieved now, and the weird feeling in her heart disappeared in an instant.

It seems that Huo Jiang and Tang Lan have received Wu Shan before, that's all right, so as not to embarrass themselves.

She was still doing mental activities, and Wu Shan said again: "By the way, Miss Qiao, why are you here?"
